Lets hope they run every day.  I know the Westbury Staff are sad  the service is being cut. They like doing this run but will be run by Glouester Crew. Lets hope if the service is running late down from Glouester, they do not stop the service Swindon to Westbury section. As you know if they have problems with the current service, it often does not run from Westbury to Swindon. But runs Westbury to Southampton. Do they pay a smaller fine if the train only runs part of the route?

Sion, I think that the trains are actually running through to Southampton even though not adertised to do so ... so cutting out the Swindon to Westbury and back loop wouldn't be an option. But it does worry me that from december 2007 the ongoing service from Westbury gets cut back to Salisbury and run by South West Trains so I don't knwo what the prognosis is then.
In terms of fines, they've historically been levied on companies based on trains failing to arrive at final destination - so that a cut back of the Swindon to Southampton service into Westbury to Southampton has NOT been a cancellation even though you and I end up on the bus AGAIN. At least, that's my understanding ...
